Very good pace of action
Very good movie. I recommend! fans of dramas about changing one's fate and second chances will be pleased. A film very similar to "Perfect marriage revenge". Very good acting - maybe PMY cries a little too much, but overall it's ok. The chemistry between the main characters is visible and full of tenderness. My greatest appreciation was gained by the second couple, Lee Yi Kyung and Song Ha Yoon. they were amazing.. aggression, hatred, jealousy - all this could be seen in their eyes.. Song Ha Yoon outdid herself in the final scene with madness in her eyes. and you also have a sweet ending... I don't know if it's too sweet. :)Was this review helpful to you?
Didn't meet the expectations
I had read the webtoon much before the drama aired. I was really skeptical about the live action because they aren't usually as good.Storyline: It was okay till 11th episode, but completed useless after that. I had to force myself to complete it. They had so many unnecessary plots. The male female lead misunderstanding was so cliché, I was shocked that today's dramas can have this cringe plot too. The revenge part was okay, the typical plot made it boring.
Acting and Cast: Song Ha Yoon and Lee Yi Kyung carried the whole show alone. Heeyeon character was great too. The mother's character was annoying but that made them a really great actors. I had much more expectations from the female lead. Oh Yoo Ra character was completely useless, annoying and emotionless. The main lead chemistry wasn't too good either. Mr. Kim's character was really similar to the webtoon and his greasy acting was great.
The actors choice would have been better and the plot could have been better too if the didn't add the misunderstanding or fight and all part.
I usually don't give bad reviews because I understand it takes alot of efforts to make a drama or a movie. Overall I'd say it's great they didn't change much of the storyline from the webtoon but wherever they did, it wasn't great. Many things could have been done better. I won't think it as a comfort drama or something I'd want to watch. Probably something I just watched cause I didn't have anything else.

The last half of the show started to drag a bit due to the pointless introduction of Oh Yura but other than that, this show kept me entertained.

A Decent Revenge Drama Carried by Its Villains
Marry My Husband delivers as a solid makjang revenge drama, but let's be honest: this show was made by its villains. Their scheming and unrelenting antics keep the plot engaging and the tension high, adding the dramatic flair you'd expect from this genre.After watching the drama, I checked out the manga, and wow—what a difference! The source material offers way more drama, particularly when it comes to the villains and the male lead. I couldn’t help but wish the drama had leaned into those elements more. There were so many missed opportunities to elevate the story with some of the manga's more intense and theatrical moments.
That said, it’s still a more-than-decent watch. The revenge arc is satisfying, and the ending manages to tie things up well enough to leave you with a sense of closure. While it may not have hit every note as perfectly as the manga, it’s a solid entry into the makjang genre and worth a watch if you love a good revenge tale.

Great in the first half, rapidly slips off in the second
Its just fine. Park Min-young looks pretty and does a decent job while the male lead did not manage to impress. The main villains, however, (Song Ha-yoon and Lee Yi-kyung) did SUCH a good job- they carried the show single handedly. The psychological manipulation and desperation was portrayed so well, especially by Song Ha-yoon. Apart from that, the side characters were cute and nice, but couldn't hold my interest for long. Overall, it's an okay drama- watch it on a lazy weekend.Was this review helpful to you?
Just When I Thought The Story Was About One Thing...
Man... this was one twisted a@@ drama!! I mean, wow! I thought when fl was given another chance at life, that she would have totally avoided the husband, and found love elsewhere and lived happily ever after. Boy! the events that unfolded like she wasn't the only given another chance, and from where the chances came from really had me going!I guess we will never really know what it would be like to have that happen to us, but I tend to think that I would not have wasted so much time like she did on trying to prevent things from happening that she lost sight of what it means to really live. And also, if you have someone close to you who is so entitled and is such a pick me, pick me, it is best to steer clear of those types who will take everything they can from you under the guise of being your close friend. As we could see through the eyes of this screen writer, people's natures do not change and trying to prevent something causes something else to happen. Again, we don't know but we can imagine.
I would watch it again. Park Min Young is brilliant and is one of my most watched kdrama actors.

Engaging....
Hey,you can hardly ask more from this drama.The story is not one of a kind but it's superb in it's own right. The story is engaging and you'll not find it boring if you know what you're into.
I give thumbs up to the actors for doing amzing job on this one.
The romance is good,even better compared to other romantic dramas.
This is probably one of the satisfying ending you'll find out there.
The villains and the hero/heroines both get what they deserve, everything is justified for me.
9.5

They shouldn't have changed the original plot...
When I fisrt learned there would be a TV series adaptation from this webtoon, I got really excited. To be honest, I started reading marry my husband once, but couldn't last more than three episodes because I found it really hard to digest. Jiwon's story is not just sad, but devastating in any way.Nevertheless, I could finish reading it and finally started watching the drama. I must say: it's a whole experience! It catched my attention from the first episode until the end, the cast was amazingly selected so they could look just like their characters. And the tension is real.
But what made me sad was the fact that in the middle of the story, they added another character, who's not a part of the original story and changed the whole storyline. In my point of view, the true villain wasn't that bad compared to Ji Hyuk's ex-wife or even the real Sumin, the one in the webtoon series. Probably the worst flaw, but thankfully it didn't ruin everything at all; it could just have been better.

Hats off to the second female lead, she really got my blood boiling and had me screaming delulu! at my TV screen.
I will definitely recommend this drama and can see my self watching again. I loved the lesson being sent …>the fact that a person doesn’t show their pain or wear it on their sleeves, doesn’t mean they have it better than you.

Be careful how you choose your partner
Ep. 1 - 11: 10⭐Ep. 12 - 16: 8⭐ - Since the end of episode 11 things have gone completely crazy and a lot of drama has been added.
The ex wasn't necessary.
...
Song Ha Yoon deserves the Best Acting award. I hated Soo-min with a passion. She was amazing in this role.
Lee Yi Kyung (Min Hwan) deserves all the appreciation.
The award for "The Most Hated Couple" goes to...
...
Choi Gyu-ri (Hee-Yeon) and Lee Gi-Kwang (Eun-ho) were my proteges. The sun rays. I loved them.
...
Ji-Hyuk was a forest (the greenest flag), a stable land.
And Park Min-young (Ji-Won) is the queen we know. She was amazing like always in this role.
...
In conclusion, be careful how you choose your partner. It can be the hell or a beautiful life.

Satisfying revenge
This drama was action packed and tense and so satisfying! Revenge is sweet, as they say! The actors did a brilliant job and I loved how this drama played with my emotions at times. The villains were great--I hated them so they did a great job! The leads were sweet and I liked them together. Overall, this drama was very satisfying and kept me invested until the end. It was a great distraction and escape from the real world and I'm so glad I got to watch it! I highly recommend if you like revenge dramas!Was this review helpful to you?
